84. ROUNDTABLE- Gratitude

In this roundtable episode of Jesus Loves Addicts the hosts sit down with guest Austin alongside Kathryn and Ross to explore humility and gratitude in the recovery walk. They connect biblical examples to everyday struggles in addiction, repentance, and sanctification.

Conversation topics include entitlement versus true gratitude, the danger of bargaining with God, consequences versus the penalty of sin, identity in Christ, and how purpose (not pleasure) fuels lasting recovery. Guests share personal stories, practical indicators of relapse (restless, irritable, discontent), and why grace—“the cross was enough”—is the foundation for life-changing thankfulness.

Key takeaways: humility precedes deep gratitude, trust in God’s way transforms desires and brings real joy, and recovery is a daily dying to self that creates space for Christ’s work. Listeners can expect candid testimony, biblical teaching, and practical encouragement for those in or helping someone through recovery.
